Update:

Email from Alex:

Hi Daniel,

Our machinist has advised that it will take about 16 hours to rework the parts.
Now I have to communicate this to the partner supplier which machined the order to see if they wish to remake them or should we proceed to rework them.
I know this information is irrelevant from your perspective, but unfortunately, these are the procedures which I am required to follow.

Best Regards,
Alex Dimitrovski

An interesting twist! Sounds kinda like progress right? One fine day this will all be over and we'll be happily puffing one solid piece of stainless steel.

Thanks for keeping us updated Dan.

 

[anorth_uk]

got to feel sorry for Dan, all this grief and non of it his fault

It's also delaying these popping up on the classifieds as I wasn't into rebuildables when the list was live

Tell us, Dan. Will eMachineShop be getting future business from you?

No worries on my end, sir.

Last year I got to try the prototype SGv3, now I have 5 and a sturm G-tank, GLV and hopefully your version by then. I just hope the HVAC doesn't break down this year!

Well not to defend the emachine folks, but if had gone with 32tpi and not 48tpi, the tolerance would not be as big of a problem. Will I use them again, definantly not for 48tpi threading. Maybe give them another chance with 32tpi threaded projects.

Hi Dan these things happen and then get sorted all part of a Coop so no complaints here in Spain

I really hate to say it, but I've just put my GTUS up for trade in the classies! I recently picked up a SGV3 and it has been much easier for me to get comfortable with, so I may as well pass the amazing GTUS on to another eager vaper. Thank you Dan for putting this all together and letting me enjoy your amazing work. I'm certainly not leaving, I'm still rocking the Scubagen and I'm still looking for that elusive BFG for my Reos, but the GTUS and I just weren't agreeing, lol. I thought it was huge, but the SGV3 is REALLY huge, lol. Oh well, apparently I prefer a top coil myself. Thanks guys!

 

[Harley]

Are we there yet !!!! lol....Thanks for the update Dan....

 

[abah]

Not yet... still long way to go. Hopefully this is not the never ending stories.

 

[bradlyb]

This is the song that never ends...

 

[loft]

yes it goes on and on my friend...

 

[atavanhalen]

yes it goes on and on my friend...

Some people started singing it.

 

[Murdock Ruml]

Really? Cause I bet this is gonna make Dan real great about how long this CO-OP is taking.

 

[Shaman]

Some people started singing it.

Not knowing what it was.

 

[theECB]

And they'll continue singing it forever...

No worries Murdock, Dan's got a good thick skin and a sense of humor. I don't believe that anyone feels that Dan is to blame. He could have sent everyone crap from the machine shop, but instead he QC'd everything and chose to have everything corrected before sending he products out to us all.

I think this is just people being bored. Many of the threads have slowed way down lately.
